Play With Fire

Somewhat similar to the classic game Bomberman, in which you are trapped in a crate-filled warehouse with an enemy

Review

'Yay for browser Bomberman', says Gordon, who appears to have sent this in on the strength of its remarkable similarities to the Hudsonsoft classic (the Gameboy version of which once kept me amused during an entire London Underground journey to Heathrow and back, trivia fans). It's a top-down view of one of those warehouses full of crates that only seem to exist in video games: crates (and enemies) which you can blow up using special sticks of dynamite which explode in both vertical and horizontal directions, but handily not round corners.

All the standard powerups are here - more bombs, bigger bombs, speedy trainers; the one-player game is still a bit boring though, so thank heavens there's a simultaneous two-player option.


Controls

Arrow keys to move, ; to drop bomb (player one), W - up, A - left, D - right, S - down, "\" to drop bomb (player two).

Tips

The computer players are smart enough to run away from bombs you've just left lying around, so you really need to nudge them into corners somehow.
